Views:

He Zheng remembered that Fang Tianzhuo had been miserable since he was a child, but he had a grandmother who cared for him sincerely. So after he seized the throne successively by killing his brother and father and strangling him to death, he gave this grandmother who was originally a concubine the biggest Honor.

Although Fang Tianzhuo is cold and indifferent, he doesn't get close to this grandmother on weekdays, but he is a kind person who always respects his elders who are good to him.

He Zheng remembered that the empress dowager was kind, and he probably said this to save his own life, but to be honest, he really didn't want to suffer.

A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, the source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org

A thug came out from behind, and He Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He hurried down the steps in two or three steps, and knelt down from a distance: "See the Empress Dowager, see Your Majesty! Go back to the Empress Dowager, grass people are not eunuchs!"

The empress dowager was nearly seventy years old, and her old eyes were dim. She was supported by Fang Tianzhuo and looked at him for a while, her eyes flashed with astonishment, "Hey, when did such a handsome child come to the palace? Why has the Ai family never heard of it?" ?”

Fang Tianzhuo said: "He is the son of He Xiang."

The empress dowager suddenly realized that she immediately stepped forward to support He Zheng's arms, and said with a smile, "That's the kid, ouch, this is so handsome, how long is this..."

He Zheng glanced fearfully at the person who had just stepped forward to hit him, and asked timidly, "Empress Dowager, are you still hitting me?"

"Aijia's eyesight is not good, I think it's some little eunuch who doesn't have eyes... Emperor, are you alright?"

Fang Tianzhuo looked at him coldly, He Zheng swallowed his saliva, and whispered cowardly: "I didn't mean to..."

The Empress Dowager knew how important He Zheng was to the royal family. Her grandson was violent and arbitrary. There were countless women in the harem, and she refused to have any of them. Only He Zheng was really on his dragon bed.

She said softly, "Emperor?"

Fang Tianzhuo said: "You are not allowed to go out during the confinement period, have you forgotten?"

He Zheng immediately ran back to the door in two or three steps, and knelt down again with a puff.

Fang Tianzhuo looked at He Jinhua: "Is everything delivered?"

He Jinhua said respectfully: "Return to Your Majesty, they are all here."

"Have you talked about the family routine?"

"Yes, I will leave now." He Jinhua saw that he was in a bad mood, so he bowed and retreated, but subconsciously took another look at He Zheng.

Brother, it seems that it is not what I remembered.

Fang Tianzhuo helped the Empress Dowager to leave, the old lady couldn't help but look at He Zheng a few more times, and held back when she wanted to say something.

He Zheng knelt until Fang Tianzhuo and the others walked away before moving. Shunyi immediately ran up to support him, He Zheng hissed with pain in his legs, frowned and said: "Pick up the pen and bury it in the garden, close the door tightly."

The palace people did as they said, he went back to the house first, leaned on the soft couch and rolled up his trousers, Fang Tianzhuo's kneeling was not healed a few days ago, the two kneelings were bruised and purple, and it hurt even when pressed smoke.

Shunyi took the medicine and brought it up, He Zheng said: "I will do it myself."

He is used to independence, he has never lived a noble life, and he cannot enjoy the service of servants.

He was really tired of this kind of inferior life, and being with a king is like a tiger, and only now did he really understand the meaning of this sentence.

I can't wait to put on my wings and fly out of the palace.

But, going out of the palace is easier said than done.

He Zheng took the medicine, put his trousers down to cover his knees, and looked downcast.

Shunyi looked at him very distressed, and persuaded: "Your Majesty is busy with affairs, I believe that when he is free, he will definitely come to see you."

He Zheng looked at him speechlessly. He wondered if he was the same as a dissatisfied woman in the palace in the eyes of everyone, but in fact, he really didn't care if Fang Tianzhuo forgot about him, and whether he would come to see him.

He was just confused, he didn't know when and if he could escape from this deep palace cage.

Perhaps it was because of the conflict at noon that Fang Tianzhuo thought of him again. At three o'clock in the next hour, He Zheng heard a chant like a dream: "Your Majesty is here——"

Just as He Zheng picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat, the people in the palace had already knelt down one after another. He thought about his knees, and when Fang Tianzhuo stepped in with one foot, he knelt down with his hands on the ground: "See His Majesty."

Fang Tianzhuo didn't rush him to get up, he walked over expressionlessly and stopped beside He Zheng. The black boots and clothes were spotless, and He Zheng heard his cold voice: "Go down."

He Zheng's knees hurt so much that he didn't dare to touch the ground, and continued to prop up his hands on the ground. Fang Tianzhuo circled around him expressionlessly, and suddenly stretched out his feet from the side.

He Zheng's knees were hanging in the air, and his toes were suddenly stuffed into the gap between his knees and the ground.

He Zheng: "..."

His knees suddenly touched the ground, his head hit the ground, his thoughts went blank for two seconds, and he said: "Your Majesty, forgive me, I..."

"You?" Fang Tianzhuo's eyes were gloomy: "If you don't kneel down when you see me, this alone can cure you of deceiving the king. You have no king, no law, and you don't know how to reflect after being confined for a few days. Throwing a pen outside the hall disturbed Sheng Jia, He Zheng, how many lives do you have?"

He Zheng knelt at his feet, his head blank in horror.

He wanted to cry a little bit, damn Fang Tianzhuo came back to settle accounts with him, he probably won't see the sun tomorrow. He has lived in modern times for more than twenty years, how could he adapt to life in the palace all at once? Prepared to die, but still held his breath.

Fang Tianzhuo sat down on the chair, the room was silent, and He Zheng heard him say after a while: "Stand up."

Realizing that he seemed to be able to live another episode, He Zheng stood up abruptly, and swayed a bit because he stood up too hard. He barely stood still, and Fang Tianzhuo forbearance retracted the hand that was almost outstretched.

He Zheng looked at his indifferent expression and held his breath, Fang Tianzhuo asked coldly, "Are you dissatisfied with me?"

He Zheng's legs went limp, and when his knees touched the ground, he twitched in pain, and tears came out instantly: "I don't, I'm not dissatisfied!"

Fang Tianzhuo frowned deeply: "I haven't killed you yet, why are you crying?"

It's okay if you don't ask, but when he asked, He Zheng felt extremely wronged, and the tears fell even more. But he couldn't say that he couldn't get used to life in the palace, let alone that Fang Tianzhuo exhausted him physically and mentally. He sobbed: "I, I hurt, I hurt so much..."

Fang Tianzhuo asked: "Where is the injury?"

He Zheng staggered on his knees, his knees were bouncing left and right and suffered pain, but without the support of his palms, all the strength of his body was pressed on his knees, and the pain was excruciating. The teardrops fell down the pure white face, that exquisite face could really break the hearts of the people.

"Knees, knees hurt..."

Fang Tianzhuo pursed his lips, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pick him up. He Zheng was put on the soft couch, tears were still falling, Fang Tianzhuo glanced at him, and stretched out his hand to tear off the leg of his trousers.

He Zheng's skin is fair, and the injury on his knee is still very bluffing, like stains on snow-white paper, large and large groups of blue and purple, shocking.

Fang Tianzhuo saw the medicine bottle on the small table, took off the stopper and sniffed it, and said, "Have you wiped off the medicine oil?"

He Zheng stretched out his hand to wipe his tears, his wet eyes lowered timidly, and whispered, "I wiped it myself, it hurts too much, I can't do it."

Fang Tianzhuo poured the medicated oil on his hands, rubbed them lightly, and covered the wound with his palms. He Zheng shrank his legs reflexively, but was held down by his palms together. The man looked over, and He Zheng didn't dare to mess around move.

Fang Tianzhuo's palm was like a warm baby, gradually warming up, and the aching knee was soothed, and after a while, that hand began to massage the bruise on it with moderate strength.

He Zheng frowned in pain, but he could also see that Fang Tianzhuo was doing it for his own good, thinking that this man would work hard for the next generation. He Zheng rubbed his stomach, in fact he was already hungry, if it wasn't for Fang Tianzhuo, he would have finished his meal.

He turned his face to see the pastry on the table, and stretched out his hand to take it cautiously. Fang Tianzhuo suddenly raised his head, and he quickly retracted, his tearful eyes were like timid little animals.

"hungry?"

"No." He Zheng replied, seeing that he was dissatisfied with his reply, he added aggrievedly: "I just want to eat."

Fang Tianzhuo said: "Eat it."

He Zheng didn't dare, Fang Tianzhuo poured the medicated oil again, rubbed his other knee in the same way, and said, "I order you to take it."

He Zheng ate it, holding the hibiscus cake in one hand, and keeping the other hand underneath to prevent the residue from falling out. Like a squirrel, he bit and swallowed in small bites, for fear of disturbing him by making noise.

Fang Tianzhuo looked up at him inadvertently, and he immediately stopped his movements as if the pause button had been pressed, like a cub restlessly eating next to a big monster, he opened his eyes slightly, wary of whether he would suddenly eat himself as a prey Lose.

Fang Tianzhuo withdrew his gaze, and he began to eat again, carefully, watching him secretly at intervals.

Fang Tianzhuo rubbed the bruise for him, and said: "Before the injury heals, you don't need to kneel when you see me, but get up and eat."

He ordered someone to bring water to wash his hands, and He Zheng stuffed the hibiscus cake that he had been chewing for a long time before gnawing a little into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it with Fang Tianzhuo's exaggerated expression on his back, and then stroked his throat for a while. Turning her face docilely, she obediently sat down at the table.

Fang Tianzhuo handed the towel to the servant, sat down beside him, looked at the corner of his mouth, and stretched out his hand.

He Zheng was pressed the pause button again, his eyes followed his hand, Fang Tianzhuo rubbed the corner of his delicate mouth with his fingertips, retracted his hand and picked up the chopsticks.

He Zheng quickly picked up some food for him, and said, "Your Majesty has worked hard, please eat more."

He finished picking this and that, and quickly filled Fang Tianzhuo's bowl to the brim. The topmost eggplant wobbled and fell from the bowl to the table. He Zheng immediately withdrew his hand, as if nothing had happened Eat your own as well.

Fang Tianzhuo put down his chopsticks.

He Zheng who was pressed the pause button again: "..."

He hesitated, and gently put down the chopsticks.

Fang Tianzhuo said: "I'm going to take a bath."

Nanmenliang hurriedly ordered someone to prepare hot water, and He Zheng was thinking about his contraceptive pills, and kept pulling the food into his mouth for a moment.

He decided to eat ten meals a day in the future and turn himself into a pig. He couldn't believe that Fang Tianzhuo, who was covered in lard, would still eat his mouth.

Fang Tianzhuo was taking a bath in the side hall, He Zheng took the opportunity to eat, and just about to slip away, Nanmenliang smiled and called: "Young master, Your Majesty asked you to come in and serve."

He looked happy, as if this was a great gift to He Zheng.

He Zheng thought to himself: Bah.

He said, "Hi——"

Nanmenliang: "..."

Can do it. It's so unseemly, His Majesty will chop you off sooner or later!
